The event will be held at the W Boston Hotel from 12:30pm until 5:00pm, and will feature speakers from blockchain projects that have received investment from NGC. Founding member of NGC, Tony Gu, will give a talk on the organisation’s perspective on distributed identity, whilst panel discussions will be held on the topics of “Future of Security Tokens and Exchanges” and ” VC Fund Investment in Asia and the US.”
Projects will also have a chance to present their products through two “roadshow” sessions, with the second session spanning two rooms.
